In respect of the draft safety targets proposed by Denmark for the air navigation service provider (Naviair), the Commission has found that the level of the Union-wide performance target is planned to be achieved in 2023 with regard to the ‘safety risk management’ objective, whilst for the other ‘safety management objectives’ the local performance targets meet the level of the Union-wide performance target for each calendar year from 2022 to 2024, apart from the ‘safety policy and objectives’, where the level of the Union-wide performance target is planned to be achieved for each calendar year of the reference period.

The Commission notes that the draft performance plan submitted by Denmark sets out measures for Naviair for the achievement of the local safety targets, such as the implementation of the compliance requirements imposed by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/373 (6), as well as best practices outlined by the Safety Management Manuals of ICAO, CANSO and Eurocontrol.
However, the Commission considers that more details on the foreseen measures should be provided during the monitoring of the remaining years of RP3.

On the basis of the findings set out in recitals 11 and 12, and considering that the Union-wide safety performance targets set in Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/891 must be achieved by the final year of RP3, namely 2024, the draft targets included in the draft performance plan of Denmark should be assessed as consistent with the Unionwide performance targets in the key performance area of safety.
Assessment of draft performance targets in the key performance area of environment
(14)
Concerning the key performance area of environment, the consistency of the targets submitted by Denmark regarding the average horizontal en route flight efficiency of the actual trajectory has been assessed based on the criterion laid down in point 1.2 of Annex IV to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/317.
Accordingly, the proposed targets contained in the draft performance plan of Denmark have been compared to the relevant en route horizontal flight efficiency reference values set out in the European Route Network Improvement Plan (‘ERNIP’) available at the time of adopting the revised Union-wide performance targets for RP3, that is on 2 June 2021.
That assessment was conducted taking account of local circumstances and was complemented by the review of measures planned for the achievement of the environment targets under point 2.1(a) of Annex IV to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/317.
(6) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/373 of 1 March 2017 laying down common requirements for providers of air traffic management/air navigation services and other air traffic management network functions and their oversight, repealing Regulation (EC) No 482/2008, Implementing Regulations (EU) No 1034/2011, (EU) No 1035/2011 and (EU) 2016/1377 and amending Regulation (EU) No 677/2011 (OJ L 62, 8.3.2017, p. 1).
